Hi all,

What would be really nice right now for debugging a program in progress is
if I had an easy way to dump a bunch data from a PIC to a display.  The
serial port on the PIC is in use, but the MSSP is unused, so first thought
is to make a small circuit that would accept I2C or SPI data and put it on a
large (40x4 or 80x4) LCD display.  But on second thought, seeing as I don't
have an LCD handy,  it would be nice to just send the output to
hyperterminal.  Plus it would be so nice and portable as I travel a lot and
get most of my coding done when I'm out.

The circuit should be very simple, but before I go out and re-create the
wheel here, anyone have code for this they're willing to share?

Yes, I guess I could bit-bang serial through the spare pins, but I'd like to
use the MSSP to impact the PIC application as little as possible.

Thanks,
-Neil.
